When members of the public join the meeting, your microphone will be off (muted). Each individual will have control over their video element of the meeting (if available).

To Participate in a live meeting:
During the public comment section of the meeting, individuals will need to virtually “raise” their hand to participate.

For access from a desktop, laptop or the zoom app:
You will need to utilize the zoom controls at the bottom of the Zoom Window to “raise” your hand. The moderator will announce your designation and relay it to the board. Once the board acknowledges, you will be unmuted. Once the discussion has concluded, you will be placed back on mute and the board will proceed to the next public comment.

For access from the phone number:
You will need to dial *9 on your phone. This will notify the moderator of your designation. Once the last three digits of your phone number are read and acknowledged by the board you will be unmuted. At the conclusion of your discussion, you will be placed back on mute and the board will proceed to the next public comment.
